Platform controls not working / won’t start from platform

I have an older snorkel lift that won't start from the platform. It will crank over but that's it. It will start from the ground in the ground mode.
I started it from the ground and tried to switch it over to platform and it dies

Serial number is 900057 02/90


Thanks in advance for your help

Sounds like your losing main power through stop button or main ground through harness. Trace power through stop button, then ground...If you have both. Resubmit

Fact of the week
Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
